THIS IS DOWNSTAIRS ONLY. Please note that parking is very limited. The downstairs unit has only 1 dedicated parking space if the upstairs is occupied.

If you were instant booking, please do not book with more than two adults without our permission. We will not allow the booking . Again. If you are more than two adults and are bringing children, you must let us know in advance.

You may have to clean the grill if the last guests did not clean it as is courtesy. Our cleaners do NOT clean the grills. Charcoal is NOT an amenity we provide, but many guests leave some behind as a pay it forward gesture, so you may find some but you are responsible for your charcoal needs. In

The unit has baseboard heat and an older window style a/c setup. - nothing fancy! It also has a dehumidifier that you may have to empty if full. We thank you in advance for your assistance with this.

Please note that the wood paneling and the age and proximity to the ocean can have a unique cottage smell. We do run a dehumidifier which you may have to empty during your stay. We assume you read this note before booking. Thank you!

    We stayed on the 1st floor of the Seahorse Cottage. The cottage was exactly as advertised. It was perfect for us and our dog. Location is great, beach access is right out the door. The cottage was very clean and comfortable; we had everything we needed. The outside space was very nice as well. Checking in was seamless and the hosts offered great communication. Very pleased with our stay and will definitely be back.

    The location was very good and the cottage very clean. We enjoyed our stay but did think the cottage decor is a bit tired and that all the clumsy homemade furniture detracts from the overall impression. That said we would stay there again.

    Perfect 5 days. 2nd house back from oceanfront. Visited many local sites. Lighthouses, Wright Brothers, Pea Island. Great restaurants. Grilled out. Communication with hosts was so easy. Couldn't have asked for more. Thanks, Annette and Greg

    Clean and simple. Could use some updating and comfort touches but gets the job done. Close to the beach, dining and other activities.
